"You say the Crazy Horse tribe has sent reinforcements, and the chief himself is leading the team?" Fatuma asked, riding on his horse, in disbelief.

"There were about a thousand samurai on horseback, and I've heard that they brought a mage as an advisor. The boy replied calmly. [netbsp; After grabbing the scout's horse, Muhati immediately headed in the general direction of the Scorpion tribe, and sure enough, it didn't take long for him to encounter the elven scouts who were keeping watch around the army. Muhadi could sense the thoughts of the creatures, and the elves often had excellent vision at night, so the two sides were not staggered in the desert.

After a little identification, the elf took Muhadi to meet Fatuma, who was leading the army. Of course, Fahd also rode side by side with her, and even if he was not satisfied with his half-sister suddenly bringing someone to steal the credit, he did not show the slightest expression.

"How long do you think it will take for them to get to the trading post?" Fahd asked another question.

"About half a day later than us, no more. "And that's taking into account the fact that the human army is not good at fighting elves at night, so they should be able to repair for a while at night." ”

"In the daytime, fighting a human tribal army of 1,000 people, we really can't take advantage. Fatoumah's faithful follower, said the Great Sharif. "We should step up and take down that trading post before dawn, and then let the people of Crazy Horse know how good the scorpions are!"

"Do you bring your head just to look taller?" Fahd teased him, "Sue me, friend Muhadi, is the trading post on guard?"

Sharif glared at Fahd, but he was too reluctant to challenge him.

"Indeed, they have completely closed off their entry and exit, and the soldiers are ready to defend themselves against the attack. The boy paused, "There are probably more than two hundred people from the Crazy Horse tribe and more than a hundred guards from the business family. There were quite a few caravans trapped in the trading post, and if necessary, they could entrap some of the caravans' guards to join the defense, so that they would have a force of 400 men. ”

"That's really unfortunate, I was going to take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness and attack the trading post at night, but now it seems that I can't. Fahd squeezed out a regretful expression, "Friend Muhadi, what about your hundred-strong infantry, can they come in handy?"

"Don't call him a friend, he's my man!" Fatoumah declared, looking at Fahd's tone unpleasantly. "His small army was also borrowed by me, and whatever merit they have made, it will be counted on my head!

The elf girl's last words were addressed to the boy, who had no choice but to respond. "I am in no position to question your statements. ”

"They do come in handy, but it takes a little bit of arrangement. The boy didn't want the two elves to continue arguing, so he quickly diverted the topic. "According to what I've heard, the Crazy Horse tribe has hired a blasphemous mage who escaped from Tyre, and he used his magic to spy on what we were seeing, so the Crazy Horse people are on the alert. ”

"The good news, however, is that the mage is now with Crazy Horse's reinforcements and is not in the Outpost. And it seems like there's not much they can do to keep in touch. Muhati explained slowly, "So, I guess they don't know that I brought a hundred new troops in Tyre. ”

"But there are only a hundred people, so it doesn't come in very handy. Fatuma frowned, "Even if they are unparalleled elite soldiers. ”

"My 100 men went out early, and only later joined the army. Muhadi said the key, "The Crazy Horse tribe is about the same distance to the trading post as the Scorpion is to the trading post, almost the three vertices of a triangle.

"From where I met the reinforcements of the Crazy Horse Tribe, their time should be the same as your time, that mage saw your dispatch, and even saw that you were leading the army. The young man nodded to Fatuma, "But he shouldn't have seen my person who came out in advance, this kind of powerful magic must draw a lot of life force, even high-level mages can't use it casually." ”

"We know I only have a hundred men under my command, but the defenders at the trading post don't know that we can disguise ourselves as the army of Tyre for support. ”

"You must have met a lot of scouts just now, right?"

"That's right. "I was still wondering what had alarmed the soldiers in the trading post and sent so many scouts out to detect it. ”

"How did it turn out?" the boy asked.

"My boys gave the merchant family a good cavalry lesson, and most of the scouts were driven away, and a few who didn't know what to do were killed by random arrows. I can assure you that none of the enemy scouts have come close enough to see us in detail. Fatuma confidently asserts that he has full confidence in the accuracy of the elven horse archer at night.

"That's good. "We're going to get to the trading post, but we're going to pretend to be huge." ”

"We can get the riders out and have them drag up wood or debris to create a bigger amount of dust. The people at the trading post could not see clearly at night, and they would mistakenly think that we were much more numerous than they really were. Fahd interjected.

"Well, they may not even notice what you're doing, and humans can't see it at night. Fatumah dismissed, "Or do you not even think about winning? Do you think that I am robbing you of your merit by following up? Are you afraid that after I avenge my father, I will become a chieftain in the name of justice?"

"My ignorant, naïve, and ambitious sister. Fahd said, "Until now, you haven't really understood me as a person. ”

"You always want to defeat me to prove that you are the true chief of the Scorpion Tribe. Fatoumah's biggest competitor said on horseback. "But I'm leading the tribe to grow stronger and stronger in order to gain the support of the samurai. ”

"One day, you will understand that the small difference between these two attitudes is the distance you are from the chieftaincy. ”

When it comes to the battle of words, the elf girl is obviously a big step behind her illegitimate brother. Muhadi had no choice but to pat the girl on the back and said comfortingly, "Your fifteenth name day will certainly not be wasted, and I promise you that we will play a triumphant song in one day." ”

The boy then ordered that each of the hundred soldiers under his command should light torches, and disguised themselves as large numbers in the night. And when you arrive at the trading post, you have to light three times as many bonfires.

"From the information I got from sneaking into the trading post, the soldiers of the merchant family and the samurai of the Crazy Horse tribe are not very good at each other, and we can take advantage of that. ”

"Although I don't know what means the people of the Crazy Horse Tribe used to get the soldiers of that trading post to help them, the fundamental interests of the merchant family and the desert tribe are different, and we can divide them. ”

"Let your people stop just driving away the other party's scouts, capture some people alive, maybe they can come in handy!"
